What I'd like is a future where software is "stupidly fast":
1. RIIR -- for native code execution performance, and correctness
2. async rust preferably -- green threads for efficient cpu usage
3. the constraint efficiency of game developers: 16 ms window to do all your processing
4. data structures sized to fit cache lines
5. vulkan/metal rendering pipeline
oh my

- pjc50 2y ago> the constraint efficiency of game developers: 16 ms window to do all your processing This is the only one that really matters. It also implies a complete redesign of how "responsiveness" is handled, because the usual failure mode of slow GUIs is to get blocked on a whole cascade of updates which have to be done in series. Immediate mode GUIs are a lot better for this because the programmer knows that they can't call out to get some data; you render what you're given, either it's arrived on this frame or it hasn't.
